      Hi all,
      Just tried to install pfsense on AMI UEFI BIOS on GA-J1900N-D3V and it fails.
      Anyone tried this? or had this issue before?

      Thank you

      pfsense 2.3.4 on Supermicro A1SRi-2758F + 8GB ECC + SSD

      Happy PfSense user :)

        In what way dopes it fail? More details please. You may have to set the bios to legacy emulation or something similar.

                  Yeah that whole thread is quite interesting including the links in it to various other forums. It looks like it is possible to get that board working it's just a PITA! Hopefully a bios update can sort it. Until then this post looks most promising:

                  Edit: I see Gigabyte have now released their F3 BIOS which is reported to be much better.
